  Fri Jun 25 07:46:54 2010 paul [...] city-fan.org - Ticket created
Subject: Use of deprecated threading functions
Building with perl 5.12.1 results in the following deprecation warnings: Use of :locked is deprecated at /builddir/build/BUILD/Sendmail-AccessDB-1.01/blib/lib/Sendmail/AccessDB.pm line 292. Use of :locked is deprecated at /builddir/build/BUILD/Sendmail-AccessDB-1.01/blib/lib/Sendmail/AccessDB.pm line 311. Use of :locked is deprecated at /builddir/build/BUILD/Sendmail-AccessDB-1.01/blib/lib/Sendmail/AccessDB.pm line 323. Having googled around, it appears that the Perl 5.005 threads implementation has long been deprecated and the ":locked" attribute stopped having any effect in perl 5.10. Is there any chance of the module being updated to a more recent threading implementation?

I have to be honest, I haven't actually USED this package in about six years. I don't even have a suitable test environment in which to stress-test new code to make sure it handles OK. D On Jun 25, 2010, at 7:46 AM, paul@city-fan.org via RT wrote: Show quoted text

I looked at the code and checked it. I found no reason for the threading locks to be there so i removed them in the 1.04 release. Please test this throughly before going into production! Thank you!
